00:00:04Oh
00:00:35Earth
00:00:3666 million years ago
00:00:39During the great reign
00:00:42Of the dinosaurs
00:00:47Majestic creatures
00:00:51Giants
00:00:52And monsters
00:00:53That can often seem more imagined
00:00:56Than real
00:01:00Including
00:01:02This Pachycephalosaurus
00:01:08He's an old alpha male
00:01:10Eager to get back
00:01:12To his harem of females
00:01:18But something's caught their attention
00:01:24A rival male
00:01:30If the alpha doesn't get there
00:01:31He may lose them to the intruder
00:01:37There's just one problem
00:01:41There's a herd of giants in his way
00:01:54But holding on to his family
00:01:57Is all that matters
00:02:06He'll risk his life to reach them
00:02:22He may have survived
00:02:24But
00:02:36He may have survived
00:02:38But
00:02:38The crossing
00:02:40But the battle
00:02:40Has just begun
00:02:44The trespasser
00:02:45Is younger
00:02:46Stronger
00:02:47And more aggressive
00:02:55And he won't surrender these females
00:02:57Sculls
00:02:59Without a fight
00:03:03Their four inch thick skulls
00:03:05Are designed for a brutal style of combat
00:03:26Neither side
00:03:28Is backing down
00:03:29Neither side
00:03:32Is backing down
00:03:39This time
00:03:41The alpha is hurt
00:03:46Dazed
00:03:46And fading fast
00:03:48His hold on his family is slipping away
00:03:53Sensing his weakness
00:03:55Sensing his weakness
00:03:55The intruder prepares
00:03:56For a finishing blow
00:04:10But in the world of Tyrannosaurus Rex
00:04:16The only battle that counts
00:04:18Is for survival
00:04:24This is the age
00:04:26The age
00:04:26Of the dinosaurs
00:04:57Of the immortality
00:04:59Of the mermaid
00:05:22The
00:05:23population
00:05:24Of the
00:05:42This is the story of the dinosaurs, as it has never been told before.
00:05:59It takes place in a world lost to time, long before the infamous asteroid, millions and
00:06:15millions of years in the past, on a planet that looks nothing like it does today, where
00:06:26extraordinary beasts clash and struggle to survive, and where Earth's violent forces
00:06:36determine their fates.
00:06:40The story begins 235 million years ago, in an era known as the Triassic, where a twist
00:06:52of evolution will change the course of history.
00:07:00The supercontinent of Pangaea.
00:07:05A single immense land mass that stretches from pole to pole.
00:07:28Its vast desert interior is more like the surface of Mars than planet Earth.
00:07:44Temperatures here are brutally hot.
00:07:54In some places, it hasn't rained in thousands of years.
00:08:02But there is something far worse than the heat.
00:08:17Sandstorms.
00:08:23Few creatures can survive in a world this extreme.
00:08:27Few creatures can survive in a world this extreme.
00:08:47But not all of Pangaea is a desert wasteland.
00:08:53Along its fringes, the warm, lush coastlines are the perfect place for life to thrive.
00:09:04This is a time long before the age of the dinosaurs.
00:09:08It is the age of the ancient reptiles.
00:09:18Like Tynastrophus.
00:09:22A six-meter-long nightmare that starts the shallow sea.
00:09:34And Rhynchosaurs, one of the most successful reptiles in all of Pangaea.
00:09:50To each other, they're brutes and bullies.
00:09:59But to this reptile, they're just the terrified locals.
00:10:08Luperasuchus.
00:10:10The four-meter-long apex predator of his time.
00:10:21But he's not here for the Rhynchosaurs.
00:10:24He's sniffed out an easier target.
00:10:33A clutch of eggs.
00:10:40Very special eggs.
00:10:44Because growing inside them are the very first of their kind.
00:11:03A baby Marasuchus.
00:11:06A baby Marasuchus.
00:11:13She waves no more than a mouse.
00:11:18But she makes up for it.
00:11:21Because she has a set of skills that sets her apart from the ancient reptiles.
00:11:29including the remarkable ability to stand on two legs, not just four.
00:11:43She also has advanced lungs and lighter bones.
00:11:51Adaptations that give these little hatchlings an invaluable gift.
00:11:58They are born to run.
00:12:03And in this day and age, they need to.
00:12:22Their only hope is to find a place to hide.
00:12:29Easier said than done when you've hatched into hell.
00:12:41All her siblings are gone.
00:12:46The survival of her bloodline is now hanging by a thread.
00:12:53But thanks to her, it's still intact.
00:12:58Which is vital.
00:13:01Because her descendants are the dinosaurs.
00:13:18One year later, Marasuchus is now fully grown.
00:13:26But when you're the size of a pigeon in a land of monsters, you're still just prey.
00:13:38Now, Marasuchus must make it through another night.
00:13:43It's critical.
00:13:45Because if this dinosaur in the making doesn't survive,
00:13:49her family tree could be cut down before it even takes root.
00:13:59She's picked up a scent.
00:14:02Something worthy of her bloodline.
00:14:10A rhynchosaur carcass.
00:14:22A rhynchosaur carcass.
00:14:28But it's already been claimed.
00:14:35By her old nemesis, Lepra-Suchus.
00:14:39This is his kill, and he does not intend to share.
00:14:50But as night approaches, temperatures start to drop.
00:15:11The colder it gets, the drowsier the giant reptile becomes.
00:15:20Meanwhile, the warmer-blooded Marasuchus has a feathery fuzz that keeps her cozy.
00:15:31The perfect attire for a daring heist.
00:16:06There are the actual
00:16:20If she plays it right,
00:16:25she may just get her moonlit dinner for one.
00:16:35A feast fit for a dinosaur.
00:16:46Samarasuchus has great potential.
00:16:49She's adaptable with traits that make her special.
00:16:54But if the dinosaurs are to challenge the ancient reptiles,
00:16:59it will take more than skills.
00:17:02It will take a powerful ally.
00:17:07The Earth itself.
00:17:14A million years later,
00:17:18in the far north of Pangea,
00:17:21the darkest forces of nature are awakening.
00:17:31A series of volcanic eruptions
00:17:34is creating a catastrophe.
00:17:38One that will alter the fate of the dinosaurs.
00:17:46But the danger is not the lava.
00:17:51It's a gas.
00:17:55It's a gas.
00:17:55It's a gas.
00:17:59Carbon dioxide.
00:18:01Filling the skies and warming the planet.
00:18:06The rising temperatures
00:18:08cause a massive surge in ocean evaporation.
00:18:21Huge storm clouds descend on the continent of Pangea.
00:18:26would refer to after the falta of Pangea.
00:18:36But this will be no ordinary rainfall.
00:18:43A man gives a normal temperature
00:18:48At a man's space close to just the tame
00:18:55Cная Operator.
00:18:55Theend By 2030zyst
00:19:02It sweeps across the globe,
00:19:08carving vast rivers into the once dry continent.
00:19:20Known as the Karnian Pluvial Event.
00:19:26This series of storms will be the longest downpour in history,
00:19:31lasting more than a million years.
00:19:54When the rains finally do subside,
00:19:58Pangaea emerges, transformed.
00:20:06A world reborn.
00:20:16What were endless deserts are now forests.
00:20:21New lands that will help set the course
00:20:24for the rise of the dinosaurs.
00:20:31But first, the reptile empire must falter.
00:20:44The air in these woods is thick
00:20:48with the smell of tree resin.
00:20:57Nature is unforgiving here.
00:21:04The once-prosperous plant-eating reptiles
00:21:09are on the decline.
00:21:20Not only is this Rhynchosaur alone,
00:21:22she's starving.
00:21:29In this new world of towering trees,
00:21:34the low-lying plants that once allowed her species to thrive
00:21:40have all but disappeared.
00:21:43The forest has been destroyed by the forest.
00:21:46The forest has been destroyed by the forest.
00:21:50The forest has been destroyed by the forest.
00:21:57The forest has been destroyed by the forest.
00:21:57She won't survive if she can't reach her food.
00:22:16And she has a more immediate problem than hunger.
00:22:26A relative of the fearsome Luperosuchus.
00:22:32For these reptilian carnivores, this is a time of great opportunity.
00:22:50Unlike the nimble Marasuchus, she's slow, weak, vulnerable.
00:23:13The Marasuchus were once among the most successful of the plant-eating reptiles.
00:23:20Now their extinction is just a matter of time.
00:23:50As the kingdom of the ancient reptiles begins to fracture,
00:23:57another kind of animal is on the rise.
00:24:03The dinosaurs.
00:24:11And in this changing world, they must be adaptable.
00:24:19They must evolve.
00:24:23They must improve over time.
00:24:28And transform in ways that will help them survive.
00:24:36Finally, 12 million years after the demise of the Rhynchosaurs,
00:24:42the dinosaurs can begin to come out of the shadows.
00:24:51As the end of the Triassic draws near,
00:24:55vast forests still dominate the land.
00:24:58Now, more vibrant than ever.
00:25:03And the dinosaurs are reaping the benefits.
00:25:14Like Platyosaurus, a dinosaur trailblazer.
00:25:27This little one and her siblings are embarking on a mission.
00:25:33To explore their new world.
00:25:37With almost no regard for the dangers it may hold.
00:25:51They may not look any bigger than little Marasuchus.
00:25:57But when they grow up, they grow up bigger.
00:26:02Much bigger.
00:26:06They are the first dinosaurs to become gigantic.
00:26:14Over seven meters long, they've come a long way
00:26:18since their tiny ancestors ran for their lives.
00:26:27And unlike the Rhynchosaurs,
00:26:29these giants can easily reach the higher vegetation.
00:26:43They even have a trick for reaching the most tender shoots of all.
00:26:48the rynchosaurs.
00:27:04Excessive, maybe.
00:27:07But worth it.
00:27:11because an adult patiosaurus must eat 25 kilos of plants each day and to wash down that much food
00:27:24requires a lot of water
00:27:57it's an easy life
00:28:03but in the age of the early dinosaurs
00:28:06even a giant like platiosaurus must be careful
00:28:14because there is another dinosaur on the rise
00:28:19a newcomer with a taste for blood
00:28:29Procumsonathus
00:28:31a carnivore with razor-sharp teeth
00:28:34and killer claws
00:28:46his descendants will one day include
00:28:48tyrannosaurus rex
00:28:52but for now this angry predator
00:28:55is only the size of a turkey
00:29:08while the matchup between these two dinosaurs may be a little lopsided
00:29:16it won't stay that way
00:29:24over time a fierce rivalry will grow between two great dinosaur clans
00:29:32the herbivores
00:29:35and the carnivores
00:29:42but for the time being
00:29:48all dinosaurs are facing a much greater threat than each other
00:30:10in the water
00:30:11and on land
00:30:13the ancient reptiles remain top of the food chain
00:30:36the dinosaurs are growing as a force in the world
00:30:40but their rise is slow
00:30:44the planet still belongs to the reptiles
00:30:52for the dinosaurs to truly challenge them
00:30:54it will take millions of years
00:31:07more powerful
00:31:10more advanced
00:31:14by the end of the triassic
00:31:16the dinosaurs are ready to flex their muscle
00:31:25but there are new creatures also vying for domination
00:31:30and in the mountains of tangia
00:31:33some of them
00:31:34have taken to the air
00:31:37and they are in total command of the triassic skies
00:32:12these jagged peaks
00:32:14are their mating grounds
00:32:16these jagged peaks
00:32:29and this male
00:32:31has spotted
00:32:32a female
00:32:38first
00:32:39eject the competition
00:32:47now
00:32:48it's time for the courtship
00:32:49to begin
00:33:03to begin
00:33:04during these rituals
00:33:04the pterosaurs are focused entirely
00:33:07on each other
00:33:08not their surroundings
00:33:14which can be costly
00:33:16because dinosaurs
00:33:18dwell in these canyons
00:33:34the largest member
00:33:36of the carnivore clan
00:33:38of the carnivore clan
00:33:41Lillian Sternus
00:33:45twice as long as a grizzly bear
00:33:47with claws that can tear through flesh
00:33:53and with her finely tuned sense of smell
00:33:56she doesn't miss a thing

00:34:29Dozens of eyes are circling above.
00:34:34Even with her camouflage, one wrong move could blow her cover.
00:34:59The
00:35:00The
00:35:00The
00:35:00The
00:35:00The
00:35:00The
00:35:01The
00:35:01Oh, my God.
00:35:44This moment marks a new chapter in the rise of the dinosaurs.
00:35:52At last, they are a force to be feared.
00:36:01But the commotion of her attack has attracted another predator.
00:36:08The ancient reptiles have terrorized the dinosaurs from the beginning.
00:36:14But that ends now.
00:36:20Lillian Sternus won't be skulking back to the shadows.
00:36:26Lillian Sternus can hold her ground.
00:36:39The trouble is, here, at the end of the Triassic,
00:36:45the ground itself is about to throw the entire dinosaur story into chaos.
00:37:04Two hundred and one.
00:37:05Two hundred and one thousand.
00:37:22One million years ago, the dinosaur's world is collapsing beneath them.
00:37:36The continent of Pangea is tearing apart, creating a great divide and a molten apocalypse
00:37:49for any creature caught in this hell.
00:38:07For both reptiles and dinosaurs, escape is impossible.
00:38:21But the worst is yet to come.
00:38:28An invisible killer is choking the air itself.
00:38:37Clouds of toxic gases wreak devastation.
00:38:53A city fog poisons everything in its path.
00:39:15As the gases in the atmosphere grow thicker, temperatures soar, annihilating three quarters
00:39:24of all plant species and millions of animals across the planet.
00:39:45It's known as the End Triassic Mass Extinction, and it will change everything for the dinosaurs,
00:39:57because their versatility and ability to adapt helped them survive this catastrophe far better
00:40:05than the reptiles.
00:40:35The reign of the
00:40:37ancient reptiles is over.
00:41:11With their rivals out of the way, the dinosaurs now have a chance to rise from the ruins
00:41:21and conquer the world.
00:41:35The reign of the
00:41:55world.
00:42:17The reign of the
00:42:24world.
00:42:29Two million years later, the dawn of the most famous era in Earth's history.
00:42:39The Jurassic.
00:43:20There are now endless forests here.
00:44:03But he's got a bigger problem.
00:44:07A newly evolved rival.
00:44:19Volcanodon.
00:44:25At 11 meters long, she's more than twice the size of Masospondylus.
00:44:33She's part of a new branch of plant-eating dinosaurs known as the sauropods.
00:44:45Famous for their long necks and huge bodies that are supported by four legs instead of just
00:44:54two.
00:44:59These profound changes will help these giants become the largest animals to ever walk the
00:45:06earth.
00:45:06earth.
00:45:10If Masospondylus can't compete, it will be left behind.
00:45:21While the sauropods are on the rise, another legend in the making is waiting in the wings.
00:45:39Caves like these are crawling with strange creatures, and one of them will give rise to some of the
00:45:49the greatest dinosaurs in history.
00:46:08The tiny Heterodontosaurus.
00:46:24What makes him exceptional is hard to spot at first.
00:46:34One thing is clear, however.
00:46:38He's not one to back down from a challenge.
00:46:48Especially when there's food at stake.
00:46:56It's all about the food.
00:47:09He may only weigh as much as a chihuahua, but he does have a superpower.
00:47:16An incredibly strong beak and jaw that allow him to devour almost anything.
00:47:28And that's not all.
00:47:30He also has cheek pouches where he can store food to eat later in safety.
00:47:36Persuade, the skull, the fallen of the skull's Hideki, the skull, the skull, the skull, the
00:47:42skull, the skull, the skull, the skull.
00:48:00This multi-tooled mouth will allow his descendants to become some of the greatest dinosaurs of
00:48:08all time.
00:48:11Descendants like the mighty Stegosaurus and even Triceratops.
00:48:18From small beginnings, great things can grow.
00:48:34But the dinosaurs will need more than cheap pouches to conquer the planet.
00:48:41On the northern side of the Great Divide lies the other new continent, Laurasia.
00:49:12Hiding in these waters are the remnants of a once great empire.
00:49:27The reptiles.
00:49:36They are a deadly threat in these murky shallows.
00:49:42But they also need to be wary.
00:49:48Because they no longer rule the Jurassic swamps.
00:49:59They have been usurped by those they once hunted on Pangea's shores.
00:50:10Dinosaurs.
00:50:16Dylophosaurus.
00:50:20With over 60 serrated teeth.
00:50:23She's twice the length of a polar bear and a laser-focused hunter.
00:50:50But in these flooded forests, there are creatures even more frightening than her.
00:51:00...
00:51:11...
00:51:33Like a moth through a flame, she follows the mysterious cause.
00:52:07A male Dilophosaurus.
00:52:14Larger and deadlier than her.
00:52:27He's drawn her here for a reason.
00:52:35But it's not bloodlust.
00:52:39It's just plain lust.
00:52:44A coating ritual.
00:52:48Clawing at the ground is a display of strength.
00:52:53And to show off his virility, behold his crimson head crest.
00:53:10Finally, the grand finale.
00:53:15The song of the Swamp King.
00:53:34For a ferocious predator, he's remarkably gifted.
00:53:44But the future of her bloodline depends on her choice.
00:53:48And he's just not gifted enough.
00:54:00Ensuring the continuation of their species is critical.
00:54:05But far below, the Earth itself poses a threat to their very existence.
00:54:25This time, from the Jurassic Seas.
00:54:38An alien world.
00:54:42Full of bizarre creatures.
00:54:55The most dangerous of them all.
00:55:00The pliosaurs.
00:55:05The great sea monsters that rule the oceans.
00:55:10They are one reason that dinosaurs have not entered this frontier.
00:55:18But the real threat to the dinosaurs lies below.
00:55:29Methane.
00:55:38This greenhouse gas was frozen under the seabed for millions of years.
00:55:45But warming oceans are causing it to leach out.
00:55:49With a devastating sound effect for the entire globe.
00:56:02Extreme heat.
00:56:07The endless forests that Masosondalus once roamed are now a parched wasteland.
00:56:22The plants he relied on for food are nearly all gone.
00:56:32Many of his kind have died from starvation.
00:56:37And the rising temperatures have turned his home into a tender box.
00:57:10The
00:57:11The
00:57:27It's the final nail in the coffin for Massospundus.
00:57:37Their seventeen-million-year existence brought to a tragic end.
00:58:03Eventually, other dinosaurs will rise to take their place.
00:58:13In that time, Earth's two continents will drift even further apart, creating a fragmented
00:58:21world with new lands for the dinosaurs to conquer.
00:58:43It's more than twenty million years since the fall of Massospundus, and here in the mountains
00:58:50of what will one day be China, the climate has cooled.
00:58:57Life is flourishing.
00:59:05And a revolution is taking place.
00:59:23Within these cold dawn forests, something is stirring.
00:59:45The great four-legged dinosaurs.
00:59:58Mementosaurus, a giant of the Jurassic.
01:00:19Nearly forty million years after their ancestor, Fulcanodon, made its monumental rise, Mementosaurus
01:00:27is now so gigantic, they're just standing up as a mammoth task.
01:00:33And that's the first time.
01:00:50Alchemist!
01:00:54That's awful, I guess.
01:00:57He's doing nothing to last time and he's doing nothing to climb.
01:00:59The next step!
01:01:00How do you manage the world to find a world to find a world.
01:01:00How do you manage the world to find a world?
01:01:11They have the longest necks of any animal in history
01:01:15that can reach as high as a five-story building.
01:01:24And they're not the only giants that live in this forest.
01:01:28The trees are reaching ever greater heights as well
01:01:31to avoid being completely consumed by these towering beasts.
01:01:40But there is a catch to being this tall.
01:01:45A 15-meter-long neck can only support a tiny head
01:01:55that houses a brain smaller than an apple.
01:02:14The evolutionary focus on size over smarts
01:02:18will help the sauropods become the most dominant herbivores
01:02:22of the Jurassic Age.
01:02:34But they are not the only ones in this forest
01:02:37who are moving up in the world.
01:02:48Anky Ornus.
01:02:51Yes, he looks a bit like a chicken.
01:02:55And he is about the size of one.
01:02:58But he's nevertheless
01:03:01a dinosaur.
01:03:04A dinosaur with feathers
01:03:07and newly evolved wings.
01:03:29Cynraptor.
01:03:33Another dinosaur.
01:03:37But one willing to hunt its own tiny cousin.
01:03:41Cynraptor.
01:03:41Another dinosaur.
01:03:54His primordered wings
01:03:56are next to useless on the ground.
01:04:15But that doesn't mean he's confined to the ground.
01:04:47Up here, his wings aren't just for show.
01:05:03He's one of the first dinosaurs to be able to glide.
01:05:13And with such skill that he can even catch food mid-air, flight will turn out to be one
01:05:24of the dinosaurs' greatest leaps forward.
01:05:36But Ancyonis is still just a beginner here.
01:05:45For the time being, this airspace belongs to the pterosaurs.
01:06:00The flying dinosaurs are outgunned in the skies for now.
01:06:09But in time, the pterosaurs will meet their match.
01:06:19As the planet continues to evolve, so do the dinosaurs.
01:06:28And as the end of the Jurassic draws nearer, their control over the land on both continents
01:06:37is only getting stronger.
01:06:46It's seven million years since Ancyonis took to the air.
01:06:55Here, in what will one day be North America, geothermal heat simmers at the surface.
01:07:08An echo of past extinctions.
01:07:18The sauripods here are larger than ever.
01:07:25Their strategy of bigger is better is paying off.
01:07:32But these dinosaurs are evolving on an altogether different track.
01:07:41Stegosaurus.
01:07:47A far cry from their tiny cheek-stuffing ancestors.
01:07:54They are now as heavy as elephants, and equipped with armor, camouflage, and weapons.
01:08:04And here in the late Jurassic, they need the protection.
01:08:18Stegosaurus.
01:08:20Because there is danger in these dark forests.
01:08:31Stegosaurus.
01:08:31Allosaurus.
01:08:36Eight meters long, with dagger-like teeth, they are the most successful predators of their day.
01:08:47Stegosaurus.
01:08:48But this young male is not stalking.
01:08:52He's stealing.
01:08:59A female.
01:09:04The neatrui.
01:09:06You zie thoseير.
01:09:06I've gone daqui, but they're trying to keep us on slurping.
01:09:07But still?
01:09:14They must clean up and stay down.
01:09:17Yes, you know.
01:09:22Yeah, yeah.
01:09:30It would be 93 days.
01:09:45The young male is lucky.
01:09:47She didn't kill him.
01:10:26The rainstorms have passed.
01:10:31The young male hasn't eaten in weeks.
01:10:40He has no choice but to try his luck on a herd of Stegosaurus.
01:10:54But he can't hide his approach when he's out in the open, which gives the herd time.
01:11:01To prepare their defenses.
01:11:06They form a wall of moving bodies and spikes.
01:11:15It's intimidating.
01:11:18And confusing for the young Allosaurus.
01:11:22He can't pick out which one to attack.
01:11:34But he's got other problems.
01:11:38The veteran female has just joined the game.
01:11:43And she's been playing this game for a lot longer than he has.
01:11:53She's able to isolate one of the herd.
01:12:00But Stegosaurus has evolved a perfect weapon.
01:12:05A mace-like tail with meter-long spikes.
01:12:09Called a thagomizer.
01:12:12This man also seems to be a very effective weapon.
01:12:13From there.
01:12:16Ah!
01:12:19Ah!
01:12:19Ah!
01:12:19Ah!
01:12:20Ah!
01:12:21Thank you, sir!
01:12:21Ah!
01:12:22APop!
01:12:25Ah!
01:12:29Ah!
01:12:29Ah!
01:12:30Ah!
01:12:32Ah!
01:12:33Ah!
01:12:33Ah!
01:12:34Ah!
01:12:34Ah!
01:12:34Ah!
01:12:35Ah!
01:12:59For the female, it's game over.
01:13:06For the young male, it's payback.
01:13:12And lunch.
01:13:15Because Allosaurus are cannibals.
01:13:27Fifty million years after surviving an apocalypse, the dinosaur's dominion over Earth is now absorbed
01:13:36in the absolute.
01:13:45But the world they've come to know is changing.
01:13:54Temperatures are dropping across the globe.
01:14:02Bringing snow to the northern regions of the planet.
01:14:07Something few dinosaurs have ever experienced.
01:14:18From these frozen lands, a new kind of dinosaur will rise.
01:14:30The Tyrannosaurs are coming.
01:14:35GROUP
01:14:35Hooray
01:14:35있잖아요.
